I work in academia and look forward to embracing AI tools. Students motivated to learn will do great with it. Others will need AI to really push them to learn, and it's not clear to me how that will work. Many students just want to know what they have to submit to get a grade. Spending 20 minutes chatting with AI about a topic might be a good learning activity, but incentivizing that with grading will be tricky. I've sometimes wondered when I'll get called to the Dean's office because a student died in class because breathing wasn't specifically listed as a grading requirement on the syllabus.
